AS  TO  THE  PLACE 


ONT  imagine  that  the 

1         /^    11  COLLEGE 

you  own  the  LoUege  town 
Townirom  the  mo- 
ment you  ^rike  it. 
Remember,    there 
are  prior  claims,  and 


you're  not  the  first  squatter. 

Don 't  expedt  the  College  Town 
to  furnish  you  with  good  weather; 
because  it  won't.  The  weather  is 
generally  the  only  thing  about  a 
College  Town  not  yet  educated. 
Of  course,  if  you  happen  to  have 
come  from  Laplcind  or  Patago- 
nia, and  do  not  know  what  good 
weather  is,  the  weather  here  may 
suit  you.  The  olde^  inhabitants 
in  a  College  Town  live  to  be 
very  old ;  this  is  to  be  accounted 
for  by  the  f adl  that  they  are  kept 


ITS 
WEATHER 


t»^  COLLfcGE  FRESHMAN^S  PONT  BOOK 

alive  by  their  curiosity  to  see 
what  kind  of  weather  is  going  to 
develop  next. 
COLLEGE  Don't  forget  that  sight-seeing 
SIGHTS  j-elatives  and  others  coming  on 
a  visit  to  the  College,  must  see 
the  Library,  the  Gymnasium,  the 
Dining  Hall,  and  the  Athletic 
Field.  These,  and  the  Campus, 
are  generally  all  the  sights  there 
are.  It  is  well  to  get  this  li^  care- 
fully in  mind  earlyy  as  it  saves 
you  from  a  panic  at  the  la^  min- 
ute. You  often  think  that  you 
will  explore  the  place  and  get 
something  new  to  show  people; 
but  this  you  never  do.  The 
above  li^  is  a  fairly  accurate  one, 
and  it  suffices.  Those  whom  you 
are  guiding  about  always  pretend 
they  are  dreadfully  intere^ed  and 
excited  about  every  thing  in  turn. 
On  your  fir^  trip  as  official  guide, 
you  yourself  see  a  great  deal ;  on 
your  fiftieth,  you  try  not  to.

AS  TO  SETTLING  DOWN 


ONT  think  that  your  ^f^^, 
mere  arrival  at  Col- 
lege has  made  you 
able  to  relieve  Atlas 
in  holding  up  the  ^ 
World.TheWorld*s 
idea  of  you  at  this  point  is,  that 
you're  something  like  a  gold-fish 
ju^  let  loose  in  a  glass  globe.  It 
will  begin  to  expeEl  something  of 
you  when  you're  dumped  into 
the  big  Ocean. 

Dont,  if  you  can  possibly  side-  ^our^^^ 
^ep  it,  begin  to  live  in  a  place 
which  you  do  not  like.  Thei3/ae- 
Willies  may  lurk  in  the  comers. 
Many  a  Freshman  changes  his 
residence  about  the  mid-year,  be- 
cause he  has  not  made  a  care- 
ful seledion  at  fir^.  The  moving 


YOUR 
LANDLADY 


T"^  COLLEGE  FRESHMAN^S  PONT  BOOK 

often  entails  cracked  wash-bowls, 
broken  pidlures  and  ca^s,  rifled 
oaths,  and  a  sense  of  great  unrest 
not  appropriate  to  the  season. 

Don't  treat  your  Landlady 
shabbily  if  you  happen  to  live 
in  a  private  house.  Some  Land- 
ladies are  the  be^  souls  in  the 
world.  All  of  them  are  proud 
and  descended  from  the  best  early 
families  (you  have  only  to  take 
their  word  for  this).  Though 
they  are  often  inquisitive,  their 
inquisitiveness  often  comes  from 
their  genuine  intere^  in  you. 
Sometimes,  the  more  they  k^oto 
of  your  family  hi^ory,  the  less 
they  will  charge  you  for  oil  and 
gas,  at  the  end  of  the  month. 

Dont  begin  too  early  in  the 
term  to  make  your  Landlady's 
house  a  noisy  abode.  She  may 
get  impatient  and  do  something 
ha^,  such  as  even  demanding 
your  key,  payment  and  evacua-

tion.  In  such  an  event  you  see 
the  full  meaning  of  her  appella- 
tion. Whereas,  before  you  may 
have  thought  that  the  word 
"land"  in  her  title  meant  to 
catch,  as  to  land  a  fish,  you  now 
see  that  it  is  primarily  derived 
from  her  ability  to  come  down 
hard  on  a  special  occasion. 

Dont  be  discouraged  if  you  dusting 
can't  find  anything  in  the  right  ^-^^ 
place  after  the  dusting  lady  has 
put  things  in  order.    It's  a  way 
they  have. 

Dont  neglecft  ta^e  in  your  ^^ 
room.  How  do  you  know  but 
that  somebody  may  judge  you 
by  the  way  you  decorate  your 
study?  Presumably,  you  were 
not  raised  in  a  bam,  and  there 
can  be  no  harm  in  letting  the 
appearance  of  your  room  becur 
out  this  as  facfl. 

Dont  try  to  make  a  royal  rest-  ^^^ 
dence  of  your  room.    Your  ta^e 


A  WORD 
ABOUT 


T"^  COLLEGE  FRESHMAN^S  PONT  BOOK 

may  alter.  A  College  man's  ta^e 
often  undergoes  rapid  and  violent 
revolution  for  the  better^  within 
the  fir^  yecuf. 

Don 't  think  that  you  mu^have 
RUGS  Turkish  rugs.  Generally,  a  Fresh- 
man  cannot  tell  the  real  article 
when  he  sees  it.  The  man  at  the 
sale  may  try  to  make  you  believe 
they'll  never  wear  out.  Never 
mind.  You  have  only  to  get 
them  to  know  what  he  means. 
Ju^  get  some  old,  reliable  pat- 
terns. There  is  a  secret  connedted 
with  this.  The  older  and  dirtier 
they  get,  the  more  Oriental  they 
look.  You've  no  idea  how  much 
sweeping  this  saves. 
Bw?!^  ^0^''  go  in  for  a  lot  of  fine 
BRAc  china,  the  fir^  term.  How  can 
you  tell  but  that  your  neighbors 
or  visitors  may  not  care  as  much 
for  that  sort  of  thing  as  you? 
Remember,  that  in  a  room  where 
costly  china  lies  about  in  pro- 


T"^  COLLEGE  FRESHMAN^S  PONT  BOOK 

fusion,  a  "rough-house'*  may  be 
a  more  expensive  variety  of  en- 
tertainment than  Grand  Opera 
with  seats  for  the  family. 

Don't  get  angry  if  a  Senior  ^cgra- 
comes  into  your  room  and  looks  ^^^^ 
about  and  smiles.  Probably,  he's 
only  remembering  that  he  once 
decorated  his  room  the  way  you 
now  do  yours.  Just  ^eep  your 
eyes  open  when  you  go  into  older 
fellows'  rooms.  You  '11  soon  learn 
that  two  crossed  college  flags,  a 
vile  placer  copy  of  the  Venus 
de  Milo,  and  a  copy  of  the  Barye 
Lion  as  sole  decorations  may 
be  lived  down, — or  later  pulled 
down.  If  you  wish  to  be  excep- 
tionally original,  don't  go  in  for 
either  the  flags  or  thecals.  Yet,  in 
following  years,  these  things  may 
become  good  old  friends  to  re- 
mind you  that  you  were  once  a 
Freshman.  about

men do  this; — it  is  especially 
pathetic,  by  the  way,  to  see  a 
Freshman  waving  a  flag  which  is 
off-color  at  a  big  game.  Some- 
times the  mi^ake  is  attributed  to 
color-blindness.  This  is  a  char- 
itable interpretation.

through  College.  We  heard  of  one 
house  having  to  be  torn  down, 
that  a  Freshman  might  move  out 
with  his  roll-top  desk.  Not  only 
this,  but  when  he  failed  to  find 
another  place,  a  house  had  to  be 
built  up  around  his  cumbersome

of  you  trunk  is  ^ill  unpacked. 

Don't  look  too  sober  if  hazing  J^q^ 
happens  to  be  in  vogue,  and  the 
Sophomores  order  you  about. 
Remember  that  you  can  make 
the  affair  either  a  funeral  or  a 
farce;  and  it's  pleasanter  to  be 
the  leading  man  in  a  farce  than 
to  be  the  principal  at  a  funeral. 
The  be^  way  to  get  along 
with  Sophomores  is  to  take  them 
good-naturedly.  Don't  be  nause- 
atingly  saccharine,  for  that's  just 
about  as  bad  as  getting  mad 
about  it.  Ju^  fool  them  into  think- 
ing you're  enjoying  yourself,  and 
they'll  ^op. 

Don't  negled:  to  receive  your  ^^^ 
visitors  as  if  you   were  glad  to  ^^^Srs^ 
see  them.   This  is  not  encourag- 
ing hypocrisy,  inasmuch  as  the 


T"^  COLLEGE  FRESHMAN^S  PONT  BOOK 

recommendation  need  not  include 
the  laundryman  or  the  tailor's 
collec5tor.  You  couldn't  fool  them^ 
anyway.  It  is  not  polite,  when 
visitors  come,  always  to  be  found 
with  a  green  shade  over  your 
eyes.  When  a  visitor  calls,  look 
as  if  you  had  ju^  been  waiting 
for  some  one  to  talk  to.  If  you 
improve  your  time  between  visit- 
ors, they  ought  not  to  cause  you 
to  wa^e  any  valuable  time. 

T^pm^  Dont  play  the  piano  at  all 
^^^  hours.  Have  a  regular  time  for 
practice;  then  your  neighbors  may 
protect  themselves.  If  you  play 
the  violin  or  the  trumpet,  dont 
overdo  it;  you  are  tempting  Fate. 

PROCTOR  Dont  incur  the  anger  of  your 
Prodtor  by  noisy  condudl  or 
disrespedt.  Prodlors — especially 
young  ones — are  apt  to  feel  their 
oats  and  to  report  you  on  slight 
provocation.  But  a  friendly  Proc- 
tor is  a  friend  worth  having.

Dont  carry  a  cane   in   your  ™J^ 
Freshman    year;    something   is 
very  likely  to  happen  to  it. 

Dont  be  found  displaying  a  ^J^

at  home;  but  better  leave  it  there. 
Its  dignity  is  liable  to  fade,  like  the

grandeur  that  was  Rome.  It  was 
only  because  those  nations  got  too

wear  crazy  clothes;  but  it  isn't

It  takes  some.  The  minimum  has 
not  yet  been  determined ;  nor  has 
the  maximum.  The  middlemum 
has  even  been  known  to  vary, 
according  as  the  in^rucftor  imag-

When  our  friend  Gulliver  went 
to  Laputa,  he  met  certain  Teach- 
ers who  gave  their  pupils  small 
intelledtual  wafers.  These  they 
swallowed  upon  empty  stomachs. 
As  the  wafers  dige^ed,  the  tinc-

with  it.  Thesamesy^emof  cram-

he  has  lo^  confidence,  and  needs

fiend? 
^JJJI  Don't  try  in  your  Exams  to 
make  a  hit  by  writing  long 
papers.  The  Exam  is  not  an  en- 
durance conte^.  Somehow,  long 
papers  don't  take,  unless  there  is 
some  sense  in  everything  you  have 
written.  If  you  don't  believe  this, 
try  it  and  find  out. 
Don't  rely  wholly  upon  ft/pe-

show  no  quarter  to  those  whom 
they  ascertain  to  be  addidled  to 
this  predige^ed  form  of  informa-

talk  too  much  about  it,  or  think 
that  the  College  mu^  be  run  on 
the  same  plan  as  your  school. 
Your  views  may  not  be  appre- 
ciated. 

Dont  aspire  to  be  taken  for  an 
upper-classman  by  cultivating  a 
walk  or  a  swagger  or  an  air.  You 
can  work  this  so  hard,  that  finally 
you  are  the  only  one  deceived.

T»^  COLLEGE  FRESHM  AN^S  PONT  BOOK 

Don't  be  rowdyish,  or  get  the  rowdyism 
reputation  of  being  a  drunken  fel- 
low.   The  real  fun  you  get  out 
of  College  need  not  be  a  continual 
round  of  batting. 

Don 't  think  it  is  always  entirely  b^ng'^ 
the  other  man's  fault  if  he  fails  snubbed 
to  speak  to  you.    If  you  have 
not  the  ability  to  make  an  im- 
pression worth  another's  remem- 
bering, look  lo  yourself. 

Dont  be  a  fool  This  is  the  ^^ 
sum  and  the  sub^ance  of  all 
that  herein  precedes.  A  fellow 
shows  himself  a  fool  or  not  a 
fool  by  his  habits.  College  habits 
are  funny  things.  The  sooner 
you  form  your  College  habits 
the  better^ — or  worse.  To  put  off 
the  sensible  resolve  till  the  time 
of  your  lai^  exam  may  be  as 
useless  as  the  call  of  the  doCtor 
after  the  minister  has  left. 

Don't  imagine  for  a  moment  beingthe 
that  coming  to  College  enables  ass

you  to  adl  in  a  superior  way  to 
others  who  have  not  enjoyed  the 
same  privilege.  A  College  career 
is  a  grand,  good  thing;  but  its 
objeS  is  to  enable  you,  if  possible, 
better  to  understand  the  World, 
not  to  lift  you  at  all  above  it. 
The  World  hates  a  fool;  but  a 
College-bred  fool,  it  thoroughly 
despises.  Don't  let  your  ears 
grow  long,  and  don't  bray.

tell  you  all  the  things  you  need 
to  know  concerning  how  to  make 
a  man  of  yourself.  After  all,  its 
really  up  to  you.  Look  about, 
and  be  a  gentleman.  You  say, 
"But  these  few  remarks  hardly
